This is exciting news for young profession­als, families and empty nesters who wish to explore the convenient, maintenanc­e free lifestyle promised by the City Centre as well as business people needing a temporary base while they travel to Johannesbu­rg.

There will be a choice of one-, two-, three- and four-bedroom single- and double-storey homes available for rental. Tenants will be able to try out all that the City Centre, and the broader Steyn City Parkland Residence, has to offer.

CEO Giuseppe Plumari is confident that many who sign on as tenants for the City Centre’s luxury homes will soon come to realise that apartment living is just as comfortabl­e as living in a house in the suburbs – with the added advantage of being maintenanc­e free.

“We’re proud to say that our homes have been designed to offer space and privacy – essential for any family,” says Plumari. He points to features such as private studies and separate TV lounges in some of the larger residences, adding that some homes even have their own internal lifts. Other highlights include entertaine­rs’ patios, high ceilings, rooms large enough to accommodat­e king-size beds, air-conditioni­ng and double-glazed windows, integrated Gaggenau appliances in the beautiful blu-line kitchens and Kohler sanitarywa­re throughout.

All City Centre residents are able to make use of Steyn City’s facilities, so while they can cool off in the rooftop pool or grab a cappuccino from the Seattle Coffee Company on the main Piazza, they’re equally welcome to make themselves at home at one of the developmen­t’s many resort pools, its choice of eateries or the 300m lagoon, which has its own refreshmen­ts kiosk and a range of water activities.

Other noteworthy amenities include a 45km floodlit promenade, 50km MTB track, floodlit tennis courts, fully equipped gym, equestrian centre complete with clubhouse, 18-hole Nicklaus-design championsh­ip golf course, indoor aquatic centre and children’s play nodes, as well as the on-site Steyn City School and AAAgrade offices at Capital

Park, which helps to cut down on commuter time.

Meanwhile, residents can schedule a flight through the Steyn City Ultimate Helistop, a first for a residentia­l estate that facilitate­s travelling to a weekend destinatio­n in luxury and style.

Then there’s the one-ofa-kind 2,000ha indigenous planted parkland – the backdrop to this unique and extraordin­ary lifestyle estate.

The range of facilities available at Steyn City illustrate­s the enormous thought developers have given to making life more convenient for all their residents.

Features such as triple biometric access to the

City Centre and a manned front desk also highlight the importance placed on safety and security.

“We believe this adds up to a lifestyle that can’t be beaten,” says Plumari.
